5 lug conversion and 08+ SS turbo 18". That's what I'd do at least.

 

Not trying to be rude at all - the lines just don't flow with the car. looks like u goofed on the driver side... slight notch in it. I like the look ur going for. Definitely unique!

 

Whats a cobalt xfe?

 

Xtra Fuel Economy. They made subtle changes to increase the fuel economy. eco tires, altered gear ratios on the manual transmission. I think there were a few other subtle changes. can't remember off the top of my head. It was an option package on 2008-2010 LS and LT 2.2L Cobalts. If I recall, they had steel wheels only, XFE badging and unique flower-like wheel covers:

" As an alternative to cars like the Honda Civic and Hyundai Elantra" that made me laugh, especially the Elantra part. Wish I had the money for this.

 

^^ so I forgot to thank you btw! You forced my hand into spending more money damnit! lol.. well kinda.. After doing the springs on your car it got me thinking a little too much. I finally caved and got some drops springs for my balt. Now I just need to get off my lazy ass and install them!

 

Nice! Finally! what brand?

 

post pics of your car lowered

 

CM, so it's nothing rediculous. Just a nice mild drop, which is all I really wanted anyways. They're SUPPOSED to be basically the same spring rate as the stock springs so hopefully she will still ride nice.

 

hahaha glad I could help. hopefully your wheels are easier to take off then mine lol.
I got some pics in this thread at the bottom of the first page of my car lowered on eibach prokit and my new rims. Ignore the red center cap though, its metallic blue now

looks good man. You know what would go good with tho's wheels? MORE LOW MORE LOW!! haha looks good either way.

 

Honestly I was thinking about lower lowering springs but when i put my 15in stockers back on.for the winter I know that's I'm just asking for trouble.

 

so i just went threw hell trying to install my new zzp down pipe. the three bolts on the manifold came out like cake after a lil pb blast. so i get to the two nuts on the cat back flange and they are rusted to hell pb blasted them. Then took my acetylene torch got the nuts red hot took my butterfly impact wrench to it and nothing!.

So i figured i would just take the o2 sensor and cut the bolts out on the flange, right? sounds like what would be the best route. But that o2 sensor is not coming out so after hours of fighting with it i just put it back together. I'm just gunna go play stupid at some exhaust shop and let them deal with it.

Thanks gm for making a stainless exhaust with **** hardware!

just venting, anybody else go threw with this?

 

Hey guys its been awhile, but anyone have a old transmission laying around here in CT? I cracked my case all the local junkyards don't have anything. I'm willing to swap to a good case and use my internals or maybe get a good used one. Keep a eye out for me thanks.

 

holy crap jessie you still exist. lol I saw you ages ago at the right aid in wolcott i think it was you were walking to your car as I was pulling in

how he heck you been aside from the tranny issues

 

Yep still alive and well. I cracked my tranny once I upgraded the clutch. So I welded the crack and a month later it's leaking again so I need a case or a used trans with LSD. That wasn't me in wolcott my friend, people think they've seen me but today we spotted a 07 blue ion like mine with low rise. Imposter!

 

maybe it wasn't wolcott it was you that I thought i saw like the person.. the car is what "confirmed it " to me lol

i dont really go out that way anymore the most I goto CT is to see my bro, 09cobaltss1 or for a meet.. I dont date the girl from guilford anymore

 

You dating John now??

 

not really dating as much as just casual car work in exchange for buttsecks

 

What the **** just happened in here?!?!?



Ehh who the hell a I kidding..

 

So I finally got motivated enough to finally put the drop springs that have been sitting in my garage collecting dust for the past month on tonight. Man am I glad I didn't go with a lower spring! These are supposed to be a "mild" 1" front 1.5" rear drop, but they sure as **** look and feel way lower. Plus keep in mind they are brand new, so they're still going to drop a little more once they settle.

Oh well, the car looks nice now I think, but I sure as **** need to be mildfull of all parking lots and bumps now ESPECIALLY with having that full size zzp ic hanging out there. Here's how she looks now!
